Norwich City were just thrashed 3-0 by Millwall in the Championship on 22 Aug, but in the next game in the Carabao Cup on 25 Aug, they turned it around to beat Cardiff City 1-2 — this form doesn't tell us much, because the opponents were at different levels. Burnley opened the season with a 2-2 draw against West Ham United in the Championship on 16 Aug, then lost 3-1 away to West Bromwich Albion in their latest match on 23 Aug, and drew 0-0 with Bradford City in the Carabao Cup on 26 Aug. In this game, the price opened with Norwich City as favorites, but the line hasn't moved, while the total goals line has moved from 2.5 up to 2.75, indicating the market expects goals but isn't confident in either side. The data is limited because the season has just started, so the system's angle stands with Burnley not losing in a game expected to be tight.
